🎉National Fajita Day at J Bar M was a success! Thank you to our 🌟Houston Fajita All Stars🌟& our 💫Houston Fajita Rising Stars!💫

We were able to gather an incredible lineup and give out fajitas to the community. Our Rising Stars were able to show their chops while our All Stars brought the heat… literally! Folks came out to meet and greet with some of Houston’s best chefs. Of course, Houston showed his hospitality as well welcoming a celebrated chef from out of town… what better way to celebrate than through community passion, partnership, y una pachanga!

We want to thanks everyone for making it possible. Our community is what drives J Bar M Barbecue to be the best it can, from the food we serve to the events we hold, we do it for you! 🫵🏽
